if the title and photo don't make sense, they're my interpretations, and mainly speak to me on various abstract levels. maybe you'll find something.

Weekend backlog clearing

Since I've had the camera since Tuesday and tonight is Saturday, there should be 5 pictures up--which aren't. Time to clear up the account and a bonus shot for good measure.

This photo was a fun juxtaposition :) Would be a real cracker if the dog's name was Brinks, but I know it isn't. Still, dog, behind fence, half asleep, next to security sign...couldn't resist taking the picture.

When I first bought mom a digicam, I'd tried to do a very similar shot; now having much more control over exposure parameters and camera position, did it again. Perhaps a bit more exposure could be applied to get a brighter halo, but it would wash out detail in the central hotspot even further.

An experiment in fill-flash, since the the weeping bottle-brush was backlit (note the glowing "hair" on the edge of the leaves). -2EV flash compensation.
